What's more important - timeliness or accuracy of results? A research program on rapid reviews
EF 2012-13
Résumé
Systematic reviews can be very useful to decision-makers, such as policy-makers, patients, and healthcare providers. However, systematic reviews take a long time to complete because of the rigid methods that are followed. Rapid reviews streamline the methods used so that they can be done in a short period of time. But this means that their quality might be compromised. Numerous centers provide rapid reviews for decision-makers but few studies have examined the scientific merit of rapid reviews. Our goal is to examine the science behind rapid review methods and determine what key stakeholders (e.g., patients, healthcare providers, policy-makers) value more - timeliness or accuracy of results.

Abstract
Systematic reviews can be very useful to decision-makers, such as policy-makers, patients, and healthcare providers. However, systematic reviews take a long time to complete because of the rigid methods that are followed. Rapid reviews streamline the methods used so that they can be done in a short period of time. But this means that their quality might be compromised. Numerous centers provide rapid reviews for decision-makers but few studies have examined the scientific merit of rapid reviews. Our goal is to examine the science behind rapid review methods and determine what key stakeholders (e.g., patients, healthcare providers, policy-makers) value more - timeliness or accuracy of results.
